When the 7 and 9 year old sons of the 10th Sikh Guru were executed for refusing to convert to Islam, the common rendition is that they were bricked alive. However, historical sources like the Panth Parkash maintain that they were killed by the slitting of their throats. https://t.co/2ktcEFLifi

The oral tradition among Sikhs from Fatehgarh (and what I suspect is true) is that they were bricked alive, but still refused to budge on their position – so their throats were slit after the brick platform was built around them. Perhaps censored because of how graphic it is

Wow! Excuse my ignorance, but how do they make someone eat something like that? Is there any sources you have on these type of executions?

According to tradition, they cut out his sons heart and thrust it into his mouth, before torturing him by ripping his skin off and gouging his eyes out (not willingly). Will try finding a written source that it can be traced to
